A stately medium straw color in the glass with tiny, fast paced bubbles. This is a rather intense cuvee. The nose gets the party started with toast and white flowers. A bit of citrus, a bit of red cherry. There’s an innate smokiness to the wine that permeates throughout. Very distinct, very appealing. Very sexy.

100% Pinot Meunier from Montagne de Reims. This is an exciting champagne, so full of personality and character. Quite dry and complex, even at this young age. That youthful vigor is in full force here though without many of the problems other young champagnes have that cause them to be clunky or awkward.

A plethora of apples on the palate with more cherries. A touch of blue fruits and more yeast on the tongue. The smoky nature is still prevalent here and on the long finish. Unique and beautiful, this was a pleasure. — 2 years ago

Le vin a changé totalement apres 1 heure d’ouverture, passant d’un vin lourd, goutant l’extrait de gomme balloune et de bleuet en un vin plus élégant tout en fruit, avec un petite touche floral, énorme contraste qui lui a fait énormément de bien. J’ai apprécié le moment quand meme mais au prix payé, j’aime mieux un vrai Bourgogne ! 😎 — 4 years ago
